We are extremely saddened by the passing of our dear friend Nancy Wilson. The Manchester Bidwell Corporation (MBC) family will miss her gift and spirit as she was a great champion of the MBC mission, and it was a privilege to have her be a part of our organization.

“Our thoughts and prayers go out to Nancy Wilson’s family and fans as we mourn her passing,” said Bill Strickland, Founder and Executive Chairman of Manchester Bidwell Corporation. “We are honored here at MBC to have been able to work with her so closely over the past 20 years. Her support of MBC’s vision and mission demonstrates only the tip of her boundless generosity.”

Along with her support, we were honored to have recorded Miss Nancy’s last three solo albums through MCG Jazz.

“All of us at MCG Jazz would like to send our thoughts and prayers out to Nancy Wilson’s family and fans around the world as we mourn her passing yesterday and at the same time celebrate her music that will live on forever,” said Marty Ashby, MCG Jazz Executive Producer. “It was a gift to producer her final three solo recordings—especially her only Christmas album. Her spirit will be with us all during this Holiday season.”
